Trade union UHM has organised a two-hour strike in a dispute over becoming the sole recognised union representing the workers of the Malta Public Transport Services (MPTS). Currently, the workers are represented by the General Workers Union, but UHM claims over 400 of the 670 bus drivers are registered members and demands the right to represent them. Verifications of membership by UHM, GWU and the transport ministry have shown different counts, after which UHM has accused the ministry and GWU of delaying the verification process.
